... to again - ad nauseum - go over the Green Bay game "the Seahawks stole" while interviewing Aaron Rodgers and saying that the Redskins should be the 6th seed right now and not the Seahawks. It's clear that when we claim our playoff spot that A LOT of people will want to see us lose.

I say --- bring it on! Nothing better than playing with an "us against the world" mentality. And Greenberg .... is such a whiny little puke.

Completely agreed. I hope every major sports outlet KEEPS talking about it every time they mention the playoff race/seedings. I want every one of our Seahawks players with chips on their shoulders. Especially Tate.

Serenity now, gentlemen. This won't go away all year no matter what happens, and exactly zero national media honks will bring up the way the refs jobbed the hawks earlier in the game. Just part of the Terms & Conditions of being a Hawks fan.

Anybody hear him this morning around 730? Golic, Greenie, and Herm are discussing RG3 and all of that and Golic says "And you know one guy nobodys really talking about? Russell Wilson!" And Greenie immediately groans "oh god!"

Golic and Herm had nothing but compliments and good words for RW. Then they go into how RW is a huge reason why the Seahawks will be in the playoffs. And of course Greenie brings up the GB fiasco. Thankfully, Herm tells him "Don't even go there. Don't even" Greenie still does and says we should be 6-6 and Washington would be in ahead of us. Herm says "But they're not 6-6, they're 7-5! You know how Washington can get into the playoffs? Don't be 6-6. Be 7-5!"

Yeah, Golic got hammered by everyone for that. Nobody wanted to hear it. Can't blame 'em. That game was in Week 3. Week 3. That leaves 13 more games for the season to unfold. I don't even want to hear about what impact that game has on anything.

And I honestly hope we get Green Bay in the playoffs. Would be so awesome. The way our offense is playing, the way Wilson is coming into his own, that would be epic. And I think the Seahawks would put a serious hurt on Green Bay.

Made me gain a little respect for Herm.

Herm Edwards might not have been the best head coach in the world, but I absolutely LOVE him as a TV personality!

But Mike Greenberg is a no talent hack with no clue about nuthin!

It may not be so intolerable if these knuckleheads would add "well, the Hawks deserve a break or two after that Debacle in Detroit" referencing the championship stolen from us. In that case, we've had an official write a letter of apology to our owner and state that he has had "nitemares about the many blown calls". I believe he continues to state the Hawks should have won that game by no less than 14 pts.

Thus far, I've not heard any official connected with the play (vs. Green Bay) say anything similar to that. I personally was shocked we got that call. If I were one of the judges involved, I would have called it an Int. They didn't. Life goes on. It's not even close to the typical bad call on any given game day. It was a very close, difficult call.

Green Bay is a class organization and such a storied franchise certainly understands the ebbs and flows of both good and bad calls. Rodgers is fortunate to be be playing in this era...Lombardi would be telling him to just STFU and play better football next time. He needs to be reminded of this as his constant whining is not indicative of Green Bay football.

It seems to me that the NFL as well as the East Coast media types do not want to see Seattle in the Division Championships. Our "TV appeal" is 1/4 of that of the "big name" teams. Don't expect any favors in Post Season play.

The guy who called TD stood by his call for a few days, long enough for the NFL to back him up... and long enough to be hassled with threats from angry GB fans until he finally threw his arms up and said 'OK, I blew it! Should have been an INT, you happy now you psychotic a-holes?'

I'm paraphrasing of course.

Yeah but that guy was probably a math teacher and part time high school referee who doesn't need people hasstling him for the rest of his life over one call. If officiating were his lifetime career as opposed to a part time job, he might have stood up to the slobbering horde, but since it's not he probablty just said screw it.

Funny thing is, the call was upheld by the replay official who is a full time NFL employee, so.... derp.

Any radio host's job is to create controversy, or in this case continue the controversy.........cause let's face it, it get's ratings. It's the same reason Smith and Bayless are still arguing about Tebow, even though Tebow's been irrelevant for almost an entire year.

The highest ratings for ESPN and the NFL Network this year was following the Hawks Green Bay game.......they're not stupid, they'll continue to harp on it til that horse can't be beat anymore.
